Why can't an external pack/unpack be sent to background?

This is pretty frustrating when you work with large files. It'd be a welcome addition to TC for me at any rate

Like RAR or like WCX? RAR can be sent by pressing background or pressing Escape, WCX cannot because some plugins might not be threadsafe.

Yeah, I saw that too.. That'd be easily solved in GetCapabilities or whatever the function name is.. Let the packer plugin return whether it's safe or not, put the button there for those who are, not for the others

Sounds like a goos compromize, I will consider it for a later version.
